Decided to make landfall Siracusa because it should provide safe hole wilst forecast gale passes through. F7 off S coast Sicily does notappeal when forecast to be on the nose. Also. thunderstorms have been making the seas topsy-turvey for most of yesterday, making life more
difficut in the dark. By 0300 I am hoping to be able to have the hook well-in ans get some shut-eye. It's been a good passage although mostly on the donk. Ticketeeboo's been good and no surprises. The worst thing to happen is hen Sue's wasp trap emptied it's contents
into the cockpit in the dark about an hour ago so I'm walking on adead wasp carpet with bare feet now!
